Hi, Krico carried on making mags a few years after the rifle went OOP, but later stopped, saying they were too expensive to manufacture.

I've seen some nice ones for sale on eGun.de (German gun auction site) but the ones I wanted were being sold by someone who wouldn't send overseas.

I'm hoping to get a couple from the IWA show in March.

They are very similar to CZ mags, but the CZ would need to be reworked a fair bit, maybe this would be no problem.

If the IWA option doesn't work out then I'll be in touch!

mike how much do you think would be resonable to spend on a semi auto in ok condition with a small magazine?

Well, that's really tricky to answer. What's reasonable to one person may be a lot to someone else.

What rifle were you thinking of? And how small is small regarding mag capacity? Five rounds? Ten?

In the case of the Krico I've now spent more than I would have on a brand new Ruger 10/22.

But having seen a guy at my club fuming because his 10/22 has been failing to repeatedly shoot accurately, maybe that's not such a bad thing. And my rifle is certainly unusual, if not unique.

But the one thing I do hate about the Krico is the lack of spare mags.

I'm on the lookout for at least one 10-round mag, although two five-round ones would do the job.
